My post-lockdown commute back to work

[Mendip]

KW, she's a zebra dove, not a pigeon. And she won't get eaten by me... she's my only company.

We've had a relaxing morning in the sun on the balcony... I'm finally getting back into reading again, which is good as I've got two or three novels in my bag.

Today she even brought along a friend and we did a 'selfie' which was pretty cool.



JP... exercises in the afternoon... around 30 minutes and I've been sticking to it.

The skyline is pretty hazy... I hadn't noticed until you mentioned it.


Nearly forgot... I needed cheering up last night and on Netflix I found 'Something about Mary'. I'd forgotten how funny it is... that did the trick marvelously!

An old classic.

^ Thank you David, I'll check it out.


My biggest decision to make today was whether to finish my peas with lunch or save a portion for next week.

After my disaster with the whisky I decided to leave meself something to look forward to the next time I get fish and chips.

Today it was chicken things with ten chips (yes... double figures!), a small portion of peas and salad. The weight will be falling off.

This is as good as it gets in ASQ. And Bristol City in the FA Cup tonight... what a day!

[Saint Willy]

That looks delicious....lol

Mendip
The lunch looks OK but only enough to feed your pet dove.
Ask your keepers if they have a scale so you can weigh yourself.
If you show them you have dropped from 110kgs to a 100kgs they might feed you more so you don't die before they get you out the door.

That was probably the first step in determining his rations.

[Dillinger]

There'll be more meat on that pet dove

[Stumpy]

That looks delicious....lol

I just don't get the food quality. Is this ASQ like a motel 6 or something?

I eat small portions and all but what I eat doesn't look like a grab 45 minute late Santa Fe dinner... This isn't prison. You are entering this process of your own free will. They could at least feed you properly

[Dillinger]

He says he splashed out, but its in fukkin DJ Pat holidaying territory. and I'm guessing Farang cooking is not high on their agenda?

[Saint Willy]

There'll be more meat on that pet dove

and there’s two of them. No one will notice one missing.

[Stumpy]

That food looks like Makro frozen food from big bags. I'd almost sooner not eat in protest. Of course maybe they saw Mendips weight and cracking feet and told themselves, "Maybe we better help this guy out and starve him a bit so his feet will heal"

Just speculating.

"BRB. Have to get out of the pool to get another beer. Apparently my niece went to the store so my help is gone"

[Stumpy]

Ok. Back. Ahhh man that Super chilled Kaiserdom in a chilled mug by the pool sure tastes good.

[Mendip]

^ Careful you don't drop your phone in the pool mate. That would be a shame.

enjoying a few Tiger crystals, not so bad.

I’m thinking of smoking a few burgers for dinner tonight.

Never you worry there my Friend. I have the S20. It's good to 10ft for quite some time. It has been tested.

[Stumpy]

Think I am gonna grill up a nice pork tenderloin with some corn on the cob. Guess I should moozy on over to the kitchen and takes me a gander on what's available.

My niece is back and she brought Swensens ice cream for desert later.

[Saint Willy]

I had home cut chips as a side with the tomahawk last night, so not really sure I want chips again with the burgers. Maybe a spinach & sweet potato and feta salad might be the thing...

[ootai]

Mendip is probably too polite to say it, so I will on his behalf.
You 2 (KW and JP) are a pair of kunts, he's starving you know!

Actually that sounds good. I asked the missus to boil some potatoes so we can have Potato salad. I just looked and my beer inventory is low. I thought I had a minimum reorder point in place. Seems my inventory control system has a glitch. I am going to have to go talk to her about it.

Guess its some Single Malt with dinner.

Hey Mendy, How ya doin bud? You alright? Both those doves still alive? Do you have a kitchenette in the room? A Microwave?

[strigils]

This is as good as it gets in ASQ. And Bristol City in the FA Cup tonight... what a day!

Thank you for the welcome Mendip, great thread and hang in there. Re the Peas, they primarily sell them in jars in France and they are delicious over there.

Funny you should mention that, my local gourmet place just messaged me and dropped off a single malt and gin... on credit!

[David48atTD]

Mendid, ask your keepers if they have a scale so you can weigh yourself.

If you show them you have dropped from 130kgs to a 120kgs they might feed you more so you don't die before they get you out the door.

A little unkind?
